Born In Time - Bob Dylan (from "Under The Red Sky")
Hippie Dream - Neil Young (from "Landing On Water")

Whew, that one was tough. While some of the topics (water, highways, dogs, Saturdays, etc.) lend themselves to lists that would contain crossover entries no matter who picked the top 5, this one would undoubtedly be different for everybody. Had to throw a hip hop track in there though.

Let's go with:

Top 5 Track Ones, Side Ones. Yeah, a "High Fidelity" rip off, but fugg it.

I know I'm missing some old school hip hop ones, but I'm not much of a gangster rap aficionado. And Dr. Dre's Lil' Ghetto Boy probably belongs on that list, but it's so similar musically to Hathaway's original I left it off.
